Our Love & Thanks To A True Hero

“The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but [s]he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.” Thomas Paine

This is Victoria [Soto]. She died a hero today [at Sandy Hook Elementary School]. She hid her first graders in the cabinets and closets after hearing the gunfire. When the shooter came to her classroom, she told him that her students were in the gym. He then gunned her down and moved on. She saved the lives of all of her students. Please pass this on if you see it. She deserves to be remembered for her bravery.
